ting off the antibiotics and the IV
fluids to make that patient well,"
Guerra said.
Gaston said A&M will con
tinue to seek approval because it
will want to proceed at the ear
liest possible time.
"Hopefully, the proposals will
be approved without delay
when the financial situation im
proves and the board can unf
reeze its funds," Gaston said.
If funding does not improve
by July 1992, then previously ap
proved degree programs put "on
nold" would be brought back be
fore the board for another re
view.
"We need to do that because
priorities can change," Reasoner
said.
Kenneth Ashworth, commis
sioner of higher education, con
ceded that the Board's action
would "make some people and
some schools unhappy," but he
said it is an essential step toward
trying to protect quality in
higher education.
"We cannot keep adding new
programs, new services and new
buildings on top of an educatio
nal foundation lacking adequate
financial support," Ashworth
said.
Gaston said two other non
substantive proposals for a mas
ter's of science in journalism and
a doctorate in anthropology will
be submitted shortly.
The degrees are nonsubstan
tive because they can be ap
proved at the HECB staff level
instead of requiring approval
from the board itself.
Gaston said he does not know
how the nonsubstantive propo
sals will fare with the staff, out
remains optimistic. Funding for
these requests is more readilly
accessible than that needed for
new degree programs, he
added.
All aspects of higher education
are feeling the budget pinch,
Ben Latham, chairman of the
board's Campus Planning Com
mittee, said Texas institutions al
ready are half a billion dollars be
hind in needed maintenance.
"These new buildings could
translate into a demand for over
$4 million in state funds each
year to operate and maintain
them," Latham said. "I believe
that for us to continue to ap
prove projects would be to cause
even more harm to higher edu
cation through the further dilut
ion of the limited funds we ha
